Show Choir with Friends!

This past weekend Ryan had another show choir competition and this time we got to share it with out of town friends. Sara, from the gorgeous blog, The Unhurried Life, was in town with her family for her daughter, Michal, to compete in the same show choir competition as Ryan.  So, thankfully, we all got to catch up over lunch. Our hubbies got along very well...they share a love of music and I think Pat could have talked all day with him. Of course, Sara and I loved catching up too!  We met at Stamp-a-Faire and it was so nice to catch up again and meet her beautiful family.  It's Michael absolutely stunning?  I think so!  Those gorgeous eyes. WOW!
And we managed to find the kids right next to each other in a massive gymnasium so we had to snap a picture of them together.  They were good sports about it!  Sara's choir won grand champs and Ryan's was first runner up. Loved that we went 1,2 in the competition!  Here's to getting together again very soon.
Before I go, I also have a card for the current Embellish Magazine.  I am enjoying my PTI anniversary set.  Lots of versatility for a whole bunch of different cards.

You are so good at using bottom half of the card. Love all the dimension added by the blue paper stripes. Still waiting for my anniversary set.

A beautiful take on the Embellish Challenge, Lynn! I love how soft and pretty this beauty is!
Ryan is really embracing the choir isn't he?! I love that you get to tag along to cheer him on :)

Lynn, it was so fun getting together this weekend. Wish we had more time to hang out. I bet Michal and Ryan would have enjoyed hanging out too. Glad they were next to each other so we could get our photos.

Love this card! Those strips of paper are perfectly spaced and placed. Can't wait to get this set.

Well, congratulations on their placements! Woohoo! Go, Ryan! And how fun to catch up with a sweet friend ;).

Your card is breathtaking! I simply adore this color combo, but I'm not sure if I'm going to get a chance to play along this go around. Sigh.
